Notes About The Poem

The Final Frontier

Death, the final frontier?

A nest is round.

Our nest the Earth is round like all the stars and planets.

All things are orbital, even time and space.

Let us analyse life and death like night and day or water and vapour!

But, this time see death as the day and life as the night.

So in our day, we see all things clearly,

and in our night we are blindly stumbling, or lost in a dream.

The water we can see as life this time,

running always downhill subject to the gravitational pull.

The vapour is our spirit free of all Earthly bonds.

But, this too is a cycle continually reverting back and forth.

As the vapour raises towards the sky it is collected by the clouds.

Thus returning to Earth again as rainwater.

One major point to always remember in "life" also is that

you cannot create or destroy energy!

It only transforms.

Leviticus 21:19-23 19 no man with crippled foot/ hand, who is a hunchback or a dwarf, or who has any eye defect, or who has festering or running sores or damaged testicles.21 defect; he must not come near to offer the food of his God. 22 He may eat the most holy food of his God, as well as the holy food; 23 yet because of his defect, he must not go near the curtain or approach the altar, and so desecrate my sanctuary. I am the Lord, who makes them holy

Oh Great White Wolf I have been converted, such verse!!!! Leviticus 21:14 He must not marry a widow, a divorced woman, or a woman defiled by prostitution, but only a virgin from his own people, Leviticus 21:17 "Say to Aaron: 'For the generations to come none of your descendants who has a defect may come near to offer the food of his God.

I wonder? Does God also delete his comments? Never trust a god or a man that cant stand by his words.

I will never wash away words, if I made a wrong stance or statement I would post a correction, so show that anyone can be wrong, even me! LOL, In this new world of internet tooo many lash out, insult, and belittle, and then think they can hide under a rock and not face the hurt they have caused. Its no different than wearing a mask as you attack someone. Its wrong, its malicious, you will notice they all run in the end.

Change is always a good thing, Art! Sometimes words SHOULD be washed away... After all, words are just the wheels that make the tracks, and tracks always overgrow when the wheels stop rolling. But I do get your point /|\

White Wolfe, is obvious you have the wisdom , quite frankly some do lack, you can never win any debate with an extremist, more importantly, you can never reason with man who possess no heart, rather than pray to fantasy, love life with a good heart and open arms.

Hi Jan, yes someone emailed me, so funny, I quote Harper lee once, and the other quotes bible verse how many times? One has to ask, why do the self righteous always need to slander and lie? Curious

“Sometimes the Bible in the hand of one man is worse than a whisky bottle in the hand of (another)... There are just some kind of men who - who're so busy worrying about the next world they've never learned to live in this one, and you can look down the street and see the results.” A quote by Harper Lee, obviously a very intelligent woman!

Very contemplative and inspiring poem. I am not sure if I would ever use the bible as any kind of a scientific reference, and oh ya, the earth revolves around the sun, not the other way around. LMAO

Doesn't matter the version, a fairy tale is a fairy tale, and some have wisdom's in them, some just bias and hate. You will notice the followers though lean towards the narrow hate side! LOL

This made me think of Star Trek. We are heading to an alien world or worlds. We can either welcome the adventure or fear it. Thanks for the visit and comment.

Awesome, White Wolf. Extremely well penned to condense so much imagery and spirituality in so few lines. A FAVE for me.
